so, basically, official conference records will always be off by a few games when compared to the head to head records

also interesting that Tulane games still counted as conference games & GA Tech games did not

must have to do with the bad blood when Tech left

something else I remember; seems that GA Tech almost came back into the conference at one point, but Ole Miss black balled them (UGA wanted them back in) - GA Tech used to refuse to schedule the MS schools because they felt they weren't worthy (based on academics) - that snobbery wound up costing them the chance to re-join the league IIRC

There was some serious bad blood between Bryant and Dodd, especially after the infamous 1961 game when an Bama player basically broke a GT player's face.
